We finally got some nice weather this past holiday weekend, which was a welcome change. I spent most of it outside and away from the keyboard. One interesting weather glitch was the brief hailstorm we encountered on Sunday when we were about to head out for dinner. Gumball-sized (the big ones!) hail came crashing down for about 5 minutes straight. Our lawn was covered with it! I had never seen hail up close before as it usually seems to come at night around here, so it was a cool experience.
